Hi there,

I am now using PVM 3.3.9, SUN and C to write some programs.

My question is : 2 programs are running together ( not using pvm_spawn )
and they are not in a group
.
Now, program A wants to send program B a message. However, program A does not 
know the task id of program B. As pvm_send can only use when the destination
task id is known. Can anyone tell me who to solve this program? I have tried 
to use pvmtidtohost() to get the task id. But only id of program A is given and
id of program B cannot be seen. 

Thanks in advance. :)

Chan Suet Mei.
